What two numbers multiply to 140 and add up to 33?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 140 and add up to 33?"

The answer to your question is:

5 and 28

Below we illustrate and prove that 5 and 28 multiply to 140 and add up to 33:

5 × 28 = 140
5 + 28 = 33

Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?

x² + 33x + 140 = 0

If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:

(x + 5 ) (x + 28)

To summarize, since 5 and 28 multiply to 140 and add up 33, you know that the following is true:

x² + 33x + 140 = (x + 5 ) (x + 28)
